But won't hit
http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/front/5483161.html QUOTE An asteroid at least 500 feet long will make a rare close pass by Earth next week, but there is no chance of an impact, scientists reported today. That's kinda crazy... within 1.4 times the distance to the moon... I bet it'd be pretty nasty for us if this thing hit the moon. |

They mentioned the earth gets hit by these every 37,000 years or so... not sure if this one would be apocolyptic at 500ft wide, but probably pretty bad.
